The first batch of dolphins have arrived at Marine Life Park, after it was reported that a court in the Philippines had issued export permits for them.

Resorts World Sentosa said that the first group of bottlenose dolphins arrived this afternoon at Marine Life Park, where they will be quarantined.

The park, which is set to open by Dec 7, will eventually have 25 dolphins.
